If you wish to disable the Model 1503 telephone access feature, you can change SET-UP item TELEPHONE ACCESS to OFF. The Model 1503 will not listen in for the # key on in- house phones, and will not answer remote calls, ever. See SET-UP DIAL for more information.

If the alarm system is tripped, the in-house phones will be discon- nected when the Model 1503 begins to dial out, to preclude a burglar from jamming the line by shorting out an in- house phone. In this case, you will have to turn the system off at the console.

To call your system from any touch tone phone, call your number. After 8 rings (or whatever you have set RINGS BEFORE ANSWER to - see SET-UP DIAL) your Model 1503 will answer and ‘beep’. Press the digits of your access or master code on the phone. The first digit must be pressed within 3 seconds of the beep. You will hear the menu.

If you hear three beeps after entering the code, you have entered the wrong code. Try again. If you make a mistake while entering the code, press the # key and then enter the code again. You have three tries to enter a valid code.
